After seeing hashtags for a TV show featuring a “Psychic Wayne” all over Twitter, Irish student Alan Rice decided to see what all the fuss was about. Of course, within a few minutes he had already decided that the show was, in his words, tripe. But after watching a little while longer he noticed something [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/48/94/12/489412.jpeg[/IMG]

The camera in your smartphone is good for a lot of things, and we’re not just talking about Instagram and causing the sad yet inevitable demise of the point-and-shoot; now it can also be used to send and receive secret messages using light. A new Casio camera app called Picapicamera encodes messages or graphics using [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/48/93/74/489374.gif[/IMG]

In both still photography and video, camera work should generally be invisible to viewers, allowing them to focus on the subject being captured. The same is true for video games. Here’s a nerdy yet fascinating analysis of the camera in the legendary SNES game, Super Mario World. It’s so simple, yet so well designed that [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/48/93/24/489324.gif[/IMG]

Shredding on skis isn't as new as many Newschoolers may think. Watching this video of skiing in 1931 before 'Hotdogging' was even a part of skiing vocabulary is pretty epic. These skiers don't have bindings with release settings on their skis designed for safety, Plastic boots designed for precision and control, or skis designed to float in powder. The equipment they are using would freak most if not all of us out today, yet they are still ripping up the hill, dropping cliffs, slashing lines, getting air and having fun. This is what skiing or should I say shredding looked like 80 years ago, when skiers wore leather boots not much different from a pair of modern day dress shoes.
Polaroid lovers will be happy to know that it doesn’t look like the company is slowing down where the instant camera game is concerned.

I love to look at travel photography, but man, sometimes it can all just seem mind-numbingly similar. Put a cabin, some rocks, grass, or sand in the foreground, a lake or ocean in the middle ground, and a sunset or mountain in the background, preferably during a slightly cloudy day. Shake. Rinse. Repeat. I do [...]Post originally from: Digital Photography Tips.
